Sept 2nd - Dining Hall

Up until recently maintained as a museum, the childhood home of the Braddock family has been pressed into service as additional housing and classroom space for the Institute. Additionally, the increased demands have led to the main ballroom being converted into a cafeteria for both the Institute and those University students on a meal plan. Student reactions have been mixed, and reports of paranormal activity are as of yet unsubstantiated.

In the commotion, Barbara had stood up.

"No fighting! No fighting, please!"

Oh my god we're going to die how do I get someone to save us FIRE ALARM!. Paul's eyes fixed on that happy red box of salvation and lunged at it to sound the alarm. A crazy chick with a sword was as bad as a fire, right?

Graham eased, but looked a bit confused.

"Caledwha?"

And that's when a shrill alarm starts ringing, interrupting any conversation held at normal volume.

Vivienne looped Caledfwlch's strap around her head and clamped her hands over her ear. "WHAT IN THE HELLS IS THAT?!"

"Fire alarm." Jennifer says. Or tries to anyway.

"Fire alarm!" she tries again, shouting.

Paul keeps running toward the door, tripping over another chair, and taking a header into a third table.

"JENNIFER HELP THE ROOMMATE!" Vivienne pointed to Paul who was likely to knock himself into unconsciousness. "YOU, MISS, HELP ME WITH HIM!" Vivienne yelled to Barbara before she knelt and took a hold of Graham's elbow, lifting him with surprisingly less effort then her frame indicated was possible.

"Okay!"

She calmly stretches out her hand in Paul's direction and scrunches up her face. And instead of slamming face-first into the edge of the table Paul gets caught by a vaguely shimmering wall. It flickers and immediately disappears again but it took the brunt out of his fall at least.

The first day, and something's already on fire? Steph thought as she ran across campus to get to the cafeteria arriving around the same time as Ryan.

With Barbra's help Vivienne helped Graham over to a bench so he could recover. She spotted Stephanie and Ryan, recognizing him as the tall winged male from the day before. "Your aid was most appreciated, miss. The "fire alarm" seemed to be harming him more then any of the others." She spoke to Barbara, the woman and the annoyed winged man would wait.

A portal appeared and, looking dazed from all the crashes and falling and freaking out, Paul fell through it onto the lawn.

"Seeing as I see and smell no smoke, I gather someone pulled the alarm?" Steph growled at the assembled crowd, now more annoyed the alarmed.

Paul, meanwhile, was getting his bearings, and his attention fell on Viviene again. "THAT CRAZY BITCH TRIED TO KILL ME!" he yelped, trying to scurry to keep the Authority Figures between him and Viviene.

Steph's gazed snapped to Vivienne and her eyes widened as she saw a sword.

"My mother gave it to me so that I may protect myself and prove my worth as a champion of the Tuatha De Danann." Vivienne took a step away from Graham and stood tall, facing Stephanie.

"You appear to have a position of authority, I tell you in this place a student with a visibility sheathed blade is far less dangerous then any other student. I have seen many things and my blade is the least of your school's worries. As you've said, this is a place "full of hormonal teenagers with mutant powers that they can barely control". I have full control over my blade, I am no more nor no less a threat wither I have Caledfwlch with me or not."

"No." She took a step back and the lawn's watering system began to leak and sputter. "You will not take Caledfwlch from me."

"I was threatened and I saw only to protect myself and the innocents around me." Vivienne said flatly as the water began to rupture from various hidden spigots and move to pool around her feet. "I shall continue to protect what is mine." She held her hands out, palms down towards the water. "What weapon?" She actually smiled.

"You were threatened by someone just as innocent as the ones you claim to want to protect," Steph said through lengthening fangs, her eyes a feral yellow.
